Silver Darlings is the affectionate name given to Herring by those who fished for them. Was inspired to co-write Silver Darlings after years of touring the Highlands & Islands of my homeland, Scotland. Being a city girl fro Glasgow, it
was an emotional experience to be in a smaller community midst their
family and friends waiting for the fishing boats to return during
stormy weather. There were some who never came home...

Biff Smith, a retired Girvan
fisherman who took up painting late in life - completely untaught.The
painting depicts a pair of ringnetters off the Ballantrae Banks after
the herring. A fishing method of the past.

Terry Neason sings The Whole of The Moon

byThe Waterboys

I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels
To get too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

Cannonballs and unicorns
Palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers, and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Rags, flags, ferry boats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

You climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
